United 737 lands in Atlanta; single engine
A Boeing 737-800 operated by United Airlines made an emergency landing in Atlanta on Wednesday after one of its engines shut down inflight on Wednesday. The aircraft arrived safely, but the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said it would investigate the matter. The flight was enroute to Houston. United quickly made arrangements to deploy a replacement aircraft to continue the flight, but it did cause a minimal impact to its operation. The plane, registered as N76528, was operating as UA575 from Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) to George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) with 138 passengers onboard. Does United do Power By The Hour for their engines? (I presume the answer is yes, but do not know). |
I doubt United does power by the hour, as United has a maintenance division with an engine shop.

So what?
737s have an engine failure once a week somewhere in the world. |
I would suggest, with the number of 737s about, maybe even once a day. No big event in itself. been there, done that, no t-shirt

Isn't this why they have 2 engines?
